Beginner training plan
Your first lessonIn the first lesson, my hope would be able to get to know you and your sports background. We will cover basic rules to the game of Pickleball, the dimensions of the court and how to hold the paddle properly. We will also learn how to do dinks into the kitchen and the basic serve.
Lesson 11+This section would include more event stuff in terms of serving, volley, consistency, and drilling and hitting the ball between your legs.
Lesson 4-10These lessons will consist of all types of lollies, transition zone, variety of serves, team play, strategy, lobs, getting lobs, video, tape, and dissection and feedback.
Lesson 2-3οΏΌ lesson two and three well cover fore hand and back hand hit from the baseline from the transition zone and up close and across the court history of these groundstrokes are important!
Advanced training plan
Your first lessonI would take some time to get to know you as a person and as a player. We will do dynamic stretching because practices and training will be intense and when to prevent injury. οΏΌ we will start with aggressive, dinging skills and drilling.
Lesson 11+This section would be the whole development of not just being good but being great at everything!
Lesson 4-10We will continue to work on serves, and then the best type of returns to set up things. We will press into more advanced dinking and speed ups. We will work on Advance valley’s overhead, attack volleys, punch, volley, rolls, other variations of volleys! We will also work on drop shots from everywhere in the court and resets! The goal here would be to develop consistency, fast hands, and reaction! We will also work on lobs, returning lobs, and learning how to hit the ball between your legs to return a lob! As we continue to have lessons, I’ll continue to get to know you better and focusing on the areas of key development! Also Ernie’s, around the poles…
Lesson 2-3This lesson will consist of developing one strong serve, and a secondary serve that will serve as a change up the goal. Here would be to maximize your serving ability and making it a strength to your game. οΏΌ The goal hair would be to have one solid hard and fast serve. And another serve that would be different, maybe a curveball or a screwball. οΏΌWe will also work on forehand and backhand, this is important for consistency, power, precision, and pace!

My lesson with Gary was awesome. I only took 1 lesson as a brand new player to learn the basics, and he did a great job of assessing my skills and tailoring the lesson to me as an individual. We went through a ton in just an hour - court intro and game rules, dinks, drop shots, serves, volleys, and some 1 on 1 play. Highly recommend Gary for any experience level looking to learn or improve.

Gary is knowledgeable about the game and also has a great teaching style that made everything easy to understand and enjoyable. Gary was patient, breaking down each technique and giving helpful feedback in a way that really improved my skills. I especially appreciated his ability to adapt to my level, making sure the lesson was both challenging and rewarding.

I learned a variety of shots; flicks, rolls, drop shots. I have a better understanding of the differences and was able to put it into practice during the games towards the end of the lesson. I enjoyed the lesson!
